Educated locally, Gloria graduated from Hamady High School with the Class of 1965. Working as a Customer Service Associate at Citizens Bank and then for First Merit Bank for 15 years, Gloria retired in November of 2013. Gloria enjoyed camping with her children all over Michigan. Even now, she spent time traveling up north to visit with her high school classmates that she has stayed in touch with all these years. She helped organize her class reunions each year. Gloria enjoyed the water and canoeing was one of her favorite escapes. When she lived in The Highlands in Mt. Morris, she was an avid line dancer and enjoyed spending time at the senior center. Gloria had a beautiful flower garden and enjoyed spending her time tending to her flowers. She also had a pretty amazing teddy bear collection. In her free time, Gloria enjoyed reading Danielle Steele novels and Mary Higgins Clark mysteries, playing cribbage, and sewing, but most of all, Gloria loved her family and will be greatly missed. Left to cherish Gloria’s memory are her favorite daughter, Jacquelyn (Tony) Hajdu, and her favorite son, Timothy (Lisa) Wood; brothers: George (Linda) Fejedelem and Richard (Claudia) Fejedelem; grandchildren: Brian, Isabella, Casey (William), Joshua, Alexandra, Parker; great-grandchildren: Abigayl, Isiah, Noah, Grayson; several nieces, nephews, relatives, and friends.
